I'll second that: Rentokil used to have a training video, showing a mouse
climbing up a vertical brick wall, as though it was on the flat.

Mice can also get through very tight gaps. They dislocate their ribcages
and can wriggle through gaps under doors (for example) that are less than
half and inch deep.

pretty clever really then!, are they more than likely going to be living
as a family up there? i've caught one in a trap so far (last night) and
theres been no more since.
